[Home]Dipole-dipole attraction

HomePage | Recent Changes | Preferences

A dipole-dipole attraction involves two molecules with dipoles. An area of the molecule with a charge is attracted to another molecule with the oppposite charge:

  H-Cl (-ve)...(+ve) H-Cl 

The larger the difference between the two charges then the stronger the bond.
